Reuters reports today that Corey Lewandowski actually stormed into the cockpit

of that plane to fire the pilot mid-flight because of the pilot's, quote, well, because of the pilot's insufficient attention to Kristi Noem's blanket.

We have not confirmed this, but this is Reuters' reporting today, quote, the pilots in the cockpit asked Lewandowski to return to the cabin until they had reached cruising altitude.

But now she wants you to buy her this plane.

Look at this plane.

NBC News reporting that Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski have had the taxpayers lease this jet for their use already.

a Boeing 737 MAX 8.

On paper, they say they need this particular plane for, quote, immigrant deportation flights.

They have been leasing it already.

You have been paying for them to use this plane on a lease.

But now Corey Lewandowski and Kristi Noem want you to buy this plane for them.

I'm sorry, not for them, but for deportation flights.

And also, occasionally, they say, perhaps for cabinet officials' travel, Kristi Noem being the relevant cabinet official.

This particular plane they want, again, mostly for deportations, but maybe occasionally for Kristi Noem.

It looks like it's really outfitted for deportations, right?

It has a bedroom with a queen bed.

Sure, that's normal for deportation flights.

Also has a bar.

That's nice.

I'm sure the deportees have come to expect that.
